Thick fog greeted most people driving to the club
today, on arrival the fog started to thin out so the kit was pulled out in case
it should clear, as soon as the gliders came on to the field the canopies
started to mist up.
It took ages to de-mist the canopies also there was
patches of low cloud about, we had a quick flight to test the weather
it proved to be not yet good enough to fly so it was an early lunch. The wind was
due South with sometimes a bit of East and sometimes a bit of West we opted for
the S/W run.
We started flying about 12.30pm and it was obvious
from the start there was wave about, soon we had three two seaters and a Junior
all climbing steadily in the wave, - the wave continued for the rest of the
afternoon most of the flights were limited to 30mins.
Roly had the longest flight 72mins in the Junior, everyone flew, - we finished flying at dusk we managed 19 flights. - JSt
